After I visited kenya I just feel like Nigeria is so behind and we are just called giant of Africa but yet haven’t gone half of how kenya has improved in many ways

[@gabiesanchez8943]

It's because Kenya has changed its constitution to have more voices on the decision table, and guarantees that our voices are heard. We have to have public participation before any policy change or implementation, if not that policy is illegal and unconstitutional. We listen to women, youth, marginalized rural communities, business leaders, religious leaders, professionals; everyone. Kenya also have a somewhat working justice system. So we solve our disputes amicably through the courts, and everyone gets justice. So less likely for people to engage in war.

[@GatebeWaGatebe-kk6fx]

Hi Vera, Thank you for visiting our country kenya, Kenyans are your cousins, and they love visitors. In Kenya we use reusable bags in the whole country. Using plastic bags can send you to prison for some years. Another is about security in the airport, due to incidents of terrorism in the country, like the one we had in Westgate mall where many people died,security is tight in mos areas in Kenya, You had to leave the vehicle so that it can go through scanning machines to prevent bombs being sneaked inside the airport premises. All in all it is meant to protect you. We look forward to welcome you again.

In Kenya, you can pay rent for the whole year, six months, or even 3 or 2 months if you want to. Kenyans are very particular, they will move to different apartments depending on the cost, accessibility, amenities provided, and proximity to social areas and workplace.

Hey.. We Kenyans are hospitable people, its part n parcel of our culture. Planting trees is also instilled right away from primary school so its purposely done. Security checks; We've really suffered as a country bcoz of our hospitality by way of terrorists attacks/ bombs etc and so Kenyan governments have really invested in security across the country..

[@Big_J6572]

Excellent job! I'm delighted to hear that you chose to explore Kenya. Ensuring airport security is an utmost priority due to past incidents of terrorist attacks in different parts of Kenya, making it crucial to safeguard both our citizens and visiting tourists.

[@rowneyo1]

Kenya's geolocation is very unique in that most of our neighbours are not politically stable or are in war. We have also been victims of terrorist attacks and with that we take our security very seriously especially in places that may be targets e.g.Malls, Airports, Government buildings etc...hence the reason for the extra security measures. Plastic bags are actually prohibited.

[@kenyanbee753]

The security check outside the airport gate makes sense to me because not everyone that gets into the compound is traveling.

[@TheVeraFrank]

That's totally true.

[@reseso7149]

3 days ago the minister of education said schools will be ranked based on the number of trees in their compound. Rent in Kenya you cannot afford to pay a year in advance. An ordinary 2 bedroom house is $200 per month. Who can give $2400 in advance? Plastic bags were banned. You always carry a shopping bag or buy one that is biodegradable as you shop which can be an expensive habit

[@licioussamuels]

Even in rural areas mpesa rules.. funfact: mobile money wa invented in Kenya as a way for city dwellers to send money to families in villages upcountry. Honestly I can't remember when i last had cash on me.. I only use mpesa

[@jacksonsitoya2424]

Wow! Thank you for visiting our country and welcome again! Hearing someone speak so positively of my country almost made me emotional! We are a great country and we will keep rising higher and higher. The extra security measures were necessitated by the heinous acts of terrorism that we had faced in the past. We use reusable non-plastic bags as the plastic bags are prohibited by our National Environment Management Authority (NEMA); it is actually a offense worth prosecution in court which could attract a hefty penalty/fine. I am shocked that you guys in Nigeria pay rent annually! Wow!

I think boarding schls also have alot to do with this

[@lifehacks1019]

The friendly police aspect in my opinion and as you rightly put it is the fact that Kenya being a touristic hotspot, people skills are very vital even by the police. Granted, police everywhere don't have a good reputation even in Kenya. The Kenya Police Service is subdivided into several units to handle different aspects of human interactions. Apart from the general patrol and traffic police units, there are; Tourism Police, Diplomatic Police, Airport Police,Railway Police, Port Police Units with specialized skills to cater to those segments of society and operations. As such, you are likely to encounter more friendlier police at the airport unit than may be those from the traffic unit for obvious reasons.

This explanation totally makes sense. I still applaud the Airport police for doing their job well. They honestly made me feel safe. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@afrikan2012]

Cops do that to ensure you know about your channel and not faking it. This is refreshing to see someone praising our hood.

[@TheVeraFrank]

Yeah, sure thing. It's their job to interrogate foreigners. I just loved their friendly approach to it. ❤️❤️ I'm glad you love the video. 😁

[@nineclanculture]

Why the "air quotes" though! Kenya is truly a tourism hub ... Great content 🤩🤩

[@gabiesanchez8943]

It's because we have other bigger tourism hubs in Africa like Egypt, Morocco, South Africa, Tanzania, Namibia, etc. that receive more tourists than Kenya.

I officially subscribe to this channel due to your honesty,I am a Kenyan

I love to hear your great experience in Kenya, I may explain that the security checks as you get to the airport is necessitated by the past security threats in the country.

[@rufusnganga1118]

Great Content...the reason for the security checks at the Airport before entry is as a result of terrorist attacks or scares

[@MwakazisFitness]

Video is very exciting

[@africanqueen4768]

All has been said sis,you are beautiful and i love your vibe.enjoy your travels☺

[@TheVeraFrank]

Thank you so much for the compliment and kind words. ❤️❤️

[@licioussamuels]

She might be (not) beautiful, was it really necessary?

[@elizabethiradukunda1950]

@ 9.20 the reason why there is a security check outside the airport is because the vehicles and your luggage is scanned for explosives and anything suspicious. so those vehicles are actually passing through a scanner.. sort of like an x ray for vehicles

[@TheVeraFrank]

That's awesome. That's why I mentioned that I knew there had to be a reason. Thanks so much for sharing. ❤️

[@decomezdecomez7639]

[@MaroaPiusMedia]

The moment you mention Kenya in your videos then your luck opens and your stars shine.

[@The4lifestan]

For me, it's the numerous things we take for granted. The number of trees we have cut down in Nairobi. You learn new things everyday....rent yearly for example. Maybe, just maybe I would feel robbed paying rent yearly owing to the amount.

[@OvercomingF]

Eye opener to me as a Kenyan that there's alot of good in my country.

[@TheVeraFrank]

Absolutely. There is. ❤️❤️❤️

[@Nisi443]

My sister you are such a sweetheart beautiful gorgeous you spoke well that’s why Kenyan love Nigerian Kenya welcome you with a open arms come back again and again hakuna matata bye❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Muirawamaa]

About renting,I think monthly payments are much friendly to the rural-urban migration,that's a factor since it's affordable to many averaged migrators

[@TheVeraFrank]

Yeah, this makes sense.

[@marvinlukulu]

Kenya's tree cover had drastically reduced to below 10%. That's why the President set that ambitious target. And yes kids in school will have 4K clubs where they will participate in planting trees and nurturing them.

[@TheVeraFrank]

That's awesome. Protecting the environment is a top priority

[@samuelmwangi9780]
